“Godspell” Character Details

In addition to each individual being able to stand out, it is important that all be able to function as an ensemble, without any feeling, that any one (other than Jesus) stands out above the others.

Jesus – Must be the most charismatic individual in the cast. High energy, charming, funny, gentle but with strength. He is the sort of person other instinctively follow. Tenor Db4 – G#5

John The Baptist/Judas – He has attributes of both Biblical figures: he is both Jesus’ lieutenant and most ardent disciple and the doubter who begins to revolutionary way. Usually played by someone handsome and masculine, with an undertone of sexuality. He is the most “serious” and intellectual of the group, though as with all of the actors, he must still posses a good sense of physical comedy. Baritone C4 – E5

Nick – Very high energy. Impish and playful. Tenor E4- F#5 (D6)

Telly – Not the brightest in the bunch, he is a little slow on the uptake But there is a great sweetness and innocence about him. Tenor D4 – A5

George – The comedian, the class clown. The guy who can do a hundred voices and imitations. Tenor G#4 – G5 (E6)

Anna Maria – A bit of a tomboy, but basically open and sweet. Perhaps the youngest of the group. Alto C4 – A4

Lindsay – The confident one, the show-off. The first one to volunteer, sometimes she jumps in before she really understands what’s going on. Soprano B3 – C#6

Uzo – The shy one. Sometimes a little slow to get things, but when she does, she commits all the way. Has an “earth mother” kind of warmth to her. Alto A3 – F#4

Morgan – Sassy and slightly cynical, the most urban of the group. Also the “sexy” one, but her sexiness contains a large element of put-on, in the manner of Mae West or Madonna. Alto A3 – F5 (E3)
